django-multipleselectionfield

A new model and form field. With this you can get a multiple select from a choices

Initial code got from https://github.com/goinnn/django-multiselectfield by Pablo Martin

But after more than 2 years without activity and no fork taking the control of it, it may be time to move on. Here is an attempt of a small renaming (to avoid name conflicts in packages), and including the improvements of most of the existing forks.

The LPGL v3 licence is preserved.

Originally, this egg is inspired by this [snippet](<http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1200/)
